Ru roh! Yes, he’s trying, and that means a lot, but does being in charge mean he has to cook it? Because there a lot of lovely restaurants that do take out, and they aren’t all that tacky fast food. Some have real food, and that may be a better and safer alternative. You would enjoy it as well assuming they’ll share. Besides it would taste better than what he’s attempting to cook.
Man your station, Fred! When Mr. Dear is in the kitchen, there’s bound to be snacks that hit the floor … just be sure you stay out of the immediate drop zone.
Last year, on my birthday, my girls volunteered to make dinner. Our air fryer was still fairly new. I stayed out of the kitchen while they worked their magic. However, at one point, I heard the younger one say to the older, “Step away from the air fryer! We are NOT going to burn the place down!” (For the record, they DID use the air fryer, and dinner was yummy.)
Why are men always portrayed as inept in the kitchen? It’s an annoying stereotype that seems socially acceptable. I’ve enjoyed cooking since I was a teenager and got hooked on Food Network. Haven’t had cable or satellite television in years, but still love cooking.
Late hubby absolutely could not and would not cook anything. But if I didn’t want to cook, he was always willing to take me out for a meal. Or if for some reason I couldn’t go out, he would happily go get take-out. But I have several male friends who are very good cooks. All five of my brothers can also cook quite well. My dad could cook as well. As for the noise Mr. Dear is making, I used to make that much noise when I cooked, and I’m actually a good cook, just a klutz in general.

Maybe Mr Dear should make what he makes best, reservations at a restaurant! Besides Fred, count on eating lots of drops and the leftovers of the flop…

Um, those aren’t generally sound effects I’d associate with cooking. Especially ‘WALLOP’….

Hubby was a better cook that I was. But he had a good teacher and I didn’t.

All that to open a can of soup ;-)

When my late father was in charge of cooking, we knew it would be mac & cheese, lumpy mac & cheese….

The leftovers may not be good tonight, though there may be a lot left over

I don’t think my eldest BIL ever made anything more complicated than a bowl of cereal and milk. He didn’t even grill burgers.
